Papercraft John Constantine Bust

Being a Marvel Comics fan, I don't typically produce DC Comics paper models. However... Recently, as a favor for someone, I created this papercraft bust of John Constantine. Now, I am sharing the template here as my papercraft release for the month of April (just in the nick of time!) In the DC Universe, John Constantine is an "occult detective" who uses magic to defend mankind from supernatural forces of evil. The printable PDF template for the bust may be downloaded here. I have not test built this model, but I think it will come together nicely. The finished model is a little over 8 1/2" (21.6 cm) tall.

Digimon Papercraft: Botamon

In the Digimon universe, a Botamon is in essence just a baby Digimon. Its only attack is to blow bubbles from its mouth. This papercraft Botamon was created by Precision Papercraft.

Rocket and Groot Papercraft

Sadly, Groot is currently gone from the Marvel Cinematic Universe. *Sniff* But perhaps things will change when Avengers: Endgame is released on April 26th! Until then, we can pass the time by building some Marvel papercraft! ;) This Rocket Raccoon and Groot pair was created by the fine folks at UnfoldBrazil. The Pepakura PDO template for the model is available here. Included in the download is a base for the figures.

Real Steel Noisy Boy Robot Papercraft

The 2011 movie Real Steel features giant fighting robots. The protagonist robot in the film is a blue Japanese-built robot named "Noisy Boy". Before the movie premiered, two free paper models of Noisy Boy were released as a promotion. One model was a simplified, easy-to-build version (pictured on the right) and the other was a more detailed version (pictured on the left). A download of the PDF templates for both models may be found here. Instructions are included in the download. The designer of these models is DeviantART member ThunderChildFTC.

Wolfenstein Luger Pistol Papercraft

This is my papercraft offering for the month of March (a list of previous monthly papercraft may be found here). Years ago, when I first started doing my own papercraft, I did quite a few life-size models based on simple objects in old video games. This Luger pistol from the Return to Castle Wolfenstein video game is one such model I never got around to releasing (until now). Wolfenstein is a WW2 themed game and many of the German enemies in the game carry this Luger. You will notice the game designers didn't even bother to put a trigger on the gun. ^^ The PDF template for the gun may be downloaded here.

Fallout 3 Bottlecap Mine Papercraft

In the Fallout 3 video game, players can create an explosive device from found objects which include a lunchbox and bottle caps. This full size paper model of the so-called "bottlecap mine" was crafted with meticulous care by Broken Papercrafts. The illusion of the papercraft mine being real is enhanced by coloring the edges of the card stock and the addition of some bits of wire here and there.
